A passenger’s friend said that her “friend [was] on the eighth floor and they were not affected.”

Others praised the staff onboard: “Carnival Cruise lines crew are amazing. There are the hardest workers ever God bless each one of them.

“Amazing they had that all cleaned up in six hours way to go Carnival.”

The cruise liner issued a statement thanking guests and staff for the quick recovery of the situation.

The statement read: “The water main break had no effect on the safe operation of the ship. The safety and security of our guests and crew is our top priority.

“The water line break occurred at 6:00 p.m. and in six hours, our crew had replaced hall and stateroom carpeting, dried out other sections of carpeting that were damp but did not need to be replaced, and restored the 50 staterooms so that all guests could sleep in their beds that evening.

“There were a handful of guests that chose to sleep elsewhere that first night and we moved mattresses to the spa for them.”

“Both our crew and our guests have been amazing during this voyage.”

The cruise liner also gave full refunds to the passengers who were affected, as well as discounts on another cruise.

They offered to fly the guests who were affected home for free if they wanted to leave the voyage early, which two of the 100 affected took advantage of.
